R2J going all in on promoting Nomio recently. Spoke with a few professional nutritionists who aren't convinced by the benefits listed, it seems that the only testing and research on the product is 'internal' which would provide great incentive to get a positive result and the testing methodology seemed pretty flawed.
The other major issue with Nomio for elite athletes is that it isn't batch tested. Anyone involved in elite sport knows the importance of having properly tested and reliable products that you can rely on to not trip you up with drug testing. I am sure Jake probably just isn't aware of these sorts of things as he made his own way into elite running and hasn't been part of elite teams and received the support and advice that come with them growing up...
Of course Jake knows it isn’t scientifically tested snake oil. A quick ask of ChatGPT makes that clear.
Money, however, talks, and influencers can earn anything up to around £5,000 a month to promote products like this.
I doubt he’d be using Brooks, SaySky, or that Kaizen app if there weren’t some kind of sponsorship involved.
